"In A Rush" Make Up

I'm going to be honest, the majority of mornings I'm in a rush. I'm someone that just loves to hit the snooze button. But, who doesn't? Anyhow, these products are the ones I always end up reaching for. They're easy, reliable and most importantly: Get me out of the house quickly.

Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Ultra Definition Liquid Make Up  $39.00
I love this stuff because it's easy. It gives a nice, natural light-medium coverage with a semi-dewy finish. I apply this stuff with my Real Techniques Expert Face Brush, which blends it in like a dream. I'd say this stuff is not ideal for dry skin. It definitely can cling to my dry patches and I don't really have dry skin. (Even when I moisturize, not sure why this happens with this foundation) It's not my favorite foundation, but in a rush, it works for me for when I don't want to apply a full coverage foundation.

Covergirl & Olay Simply Ageless Eye Concealer  $12.00
This is seriously my holy grail concealer. Now, I am only 21 and I'm definitely not saying I have tons wrinkles. But this is one of the only concealers, that doesn't settle in any of the fine lines of mine. (I don't know, genetics?!) I feel like most concealers, drugstore and high end, just make my eyes look worse. This stuff brightens up my under eyes, effortlessly blends and stays in place throughout the day.

Maybelline The Colossal Volum' Express The Colossal Cat Eyes Waterproof  $7.77
Another product that is a staple in my collection. I have very straight, thin eye lashes. This stuff keeps my curl without clumping my lashes together. I have a lot of issues with mascaras being too thick, kinda heavy, which weighs my lashes down. This mascara is of the few that doesn't do that. I can't count how many times I've repurchased this product. It doesn't smudge, but it isn't too difficult to get off either. It's simply the best drugstore mascara I've ever purchased and it will always have a place in my collection.


Shiseido Eyelash Curler  $19.00
I don't have much to say about this curler, except, it's perfect. It doesn't pinch my eyelid, doesn't bend my lashes. It basically gets the job done. Like I said before, I have very straight lashes. So a curler is always a must before. It opens my eyes up, so I can lack on the eye make up. I usually only wear some mascara from day to day. So, it's safe to say, it's a daily must have for me. Especially on mornings, where I don't feel like messing around with eye shadow and liner.

Tarte The Brow Architect  $20.00
I'm not pickiest person when it comes to brow products. I've only tried a few and they have always gotten the job done. This brow pencil is pretty cool. One end is a brow pencil that is on a slant. It makes  filling in your brows super easy. The other end is a spooly, which is a must for blending in harsh edges.  It also comes with a little sponge that deposits concealer, so you can really define your brow. Definitely a good item to reach for when you're in a rush, it's all in one!

Nyx Butter Gloss  $4.99 
Everyone in the beauty community has heard about these. These glosses are super hyped up and for the most part, I'd say they're worth the hype. They're super cream, opaque and really bring a look together. When I'm in a rush, I always reach for the shade Apple Strudel. It's a peachy nude that always gives me a healthy look. Not to mention, these products are ALWAYS on sale! So, if you haven't given in to the hype yet, I highly recommend you do.

Milani Baked Blush Luminoso  $7.99
I didn't get a picture of this one, but it's a peachy pink with a bit of shimmer. This shade is a staple for me. It gives you a healthy glow without looking shiny or too unnatural. A little goes a long way, just a little tap on the cheeks and I'm out the door.

New at the drugstore: Garnier clean Nourishing Cleansing Oil

Garnier clean Nourishing Cleansing Oil: 5.99

So, when I saw this at Target the other day, I was super intrigued. I haven't heard of many cleansing oils. In fact, the only one I can think of on the top of my head is one from Mac. Let's get on with the review.



My thoughts: This product is infused with jojoba and macadamia oil, which is supposed to replenish skins moisture balance. This cleansing oil is clearly marketed towards people with dry skin. I, myself have combination skin. After getting over the flu and some chilly weather (I live in Florida, I really shouldn't be complaining) my combo skin was leaning toward the dry side. I will say, if you're not used to putting oils on your skin, this does feel quiet strange. With dry hands, you rub this all over your also dry face (including eyes). Then, you simply wash it off. I will say this product did a pretty good job at taking off my face make up. The eye make up gets a little messy for my taste. So, I use a seperate make up remover. My skin did feel soft after using this, it definitely did not feel oily or like I residue left over on my face. I personally followed up with my regular facial cleanser afterwards, but that's just my preference (I have super acne prone skin, I like to make sure EVERYTHING is off my face). Overall, I do like this product. I don't have too much to complain about. It gets the job done and it's a nice change from regular make up wipes. 

Pros:
-Removes make up
-No residue
-Makes skin feel soft and moisturized
-Nice pump & packaging

Cons:
-Can be messy
-Fragranced (sensitive skin people beware)
